A leak is a way (usually an opening) for fluid to escape a container or fluid-containing system, such as a tank or a ship's hull, through which the contents of the container can escape or outside matter can enter the container. Leaks are usually unintended and therefore undesired. The word leak usually refers to a gradual loss; a sudden loss is usually called a spill.
The matter leaking in or out can be gas, liquid, a highly viscous paste, or even a solid such as a powdered or granular solid or other solid particles.
Sometimes the word "leak" is used in a figurative sense. For example, in a news leak secret information becomes public.
Types of leak openings include a puncture, gash, rust or other corrosion hole, very tiny pinhole leak (possibly in imperfect welds), crack or microcrack, or inadequate sealing between components or parts joined together. When there is a puncture, the size and shape of the leak can often be seen, but in many other cases, the size and shape of the leak opening may not be so obvious. In many cases, the location of a leak can be determined by seeing material drip out at a certain place, although the leak opening itself is not obvious. In some cases, it may known or suspected there is a leak, but even the location of the leak is not known. Since leak openings are often so irregular, leaks are sometimes sized by the leakage rate, as in volume of fluid leaked per time, rather than the size of the opening.
Leak has several common meanings. As a noun, it can be a hole through which a substance escapes or enters. As a related verb, it can refer to the escaping or entering. Confidential information can also be leaked, as in a News leak or an Internet leak.
Leak may also refer to:
Leak (Dutch: Lek) is a 2000 Dutch thriller film directed by Jean van de Velde.
EMC may refer to:
4-Ethylmethcathinone (4-EMC) is a recreational designer drug of the stimulant and entactogen class. It is a structural isomer of 4-MEC.
4-Ethylmethcathinone is a controlled substance in the US state of Vermont as of January 2016. It is also covered by analogue provisions in many other jurisdictions.
The Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV), or EMC/2012 (HCoV-EMC/2012), is a novel positive-sense, single-stranded RNA virus of the genus Betacoronavirus.
Initially called novel coronavirus 2012 or simply novel coronavirus, it was first reported in 2012 after genome sequencing of a virus isolated from sputum samples from person who fell ill in a 2012 outbreak of a new flu.
As of July 2015, MERS-CoV cases have been reported in over 21 countries, including Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Qatar, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Turkey, Oman, Algeria, Bangladesh, Indonesia (none were confirmed), Austria, the United Kingdom, South Korea, the United States, Mainland China, Thailand, and the Philippines.
The virus MERS-CoV is a new member of the beta group of coronavirus, Betacoronavirus, lineage C. MERS-CoV genomes are phylogenetically classified into two clades, clade A and B. The earliest cases of MERS were of clade A clusters (EMC/2012 and Jordan-N3/2012), and new cases are genetically distinct (clade B).

I'm just a hustler, I don't need to pack in my sock
Just give me Pro Tools, a Mbox, and a track if its hot
And this shit, make you wanna smack yo momma
I'm a star risin' like Barack Obama, the track so drama

[Wordsworth:]
Excuse me, I'm standin' in your way? (Uh huh)
Blockin' all the glamor, not an amateur
Don't gamble with a play
On the planet for the day, first we landin' in L.A.
Tour the planet, hit the Bay, then Atlanta in GA
You don't plan on shootin' nothin', so that hammer put away
That talk is outlandish, that you brandishin' is fray
The only cannon/Cannon that you shot was your camera
At a photo shoot we stay fresh like a mannequin display
With the grammar that I say I'm like an animal that's stray
Cause manners went away, people panic ran away
You ain't never drive a phantom any day
You couldn't buy tickets to the Opera with The Phantom in the play
It's like a brush fire, the flames that I spit
Cause it only spreads wider when you fannin' them away
And that mic in your palm, is like a baton
When you see me on the track then you handin' it away
[Punchline:]
Yo, simple and plain
If they don't let me up in this game
I'm gonna rob the first idiot that's makin' it rain
No need to be poppin' them thangs
We can Scrap,
Like that dude that was dancin' with Kane
It's embedded in my D.N.A. strain
Best cat in the game
Up-bringin' made my thoughts insane
Real rhymers, you dealin' with rap's finest
We make the crowd say "hoe" like Don Imus
With one liners
If you willing to fight with this mic
Air you out like some white on whites
In town for one night, and we bringin' em out
Got no time for games, came to spit and be out
[Chorus:]
Check, checkin' it out
Ya don't stop, eMC
You waited long enough, we must
Leak it out
Check, checkin' it out
Ya don't stop, eMC
You waited long enough, we must
Leak it out
"Guess what we's about to do" - Queen Latifah
Check, checkin' it out
Ya don't stop, eMC
You waited long enough, we must
Leak it out
Check, checkin' it out
Ya don't stop, eMC
You waited long enough, we must
Leak it out
